Be careful with frozen products
such as coloured ice-cubes.
Do not exceed the freezing capacity
of your appliance in 24 hours. See
the rating label.
In order to maintain the quality
of the food, the freezing must be
effected as rapidly as possible.
Thus, the freezing capacity will not
be exceeded, and the temperature
inside the freezer will not rise.
• Attention
Keep the already deep-frozen food
always separated with freshly
placed food.
When deep-freezing hot food, the
cooling compressor will work until
the food is completely frozen. This
can temporarily cause excessive
cooling of the refrigeration
compartment.
If you find the freezer door difficult
to open just after you have closed
it, don't worry. This is due to the
pressure difference which will
equalize and allow the door to
open normally after a few minutes.
You will hear a vacuum sound just
after closing the door. This is quite
normal.
Making ice cubes
Fill the ice-cube tray 3/4 full with
water and place it in the freezer.
As soon as the water has turned
into ice, you can take out the ice
cubes.
Never use sharp objects such as
knives or forks to remove the ice
cubes. There is a risk of injury!
Let the ice cubes slightly thaw
instead, or put the bottom of
the tray in hot water for a short
moment.
Storing frozen food
The frozen food compartment is
marked with
The frozen food compartment is
suitable for the storage of pre-
frozen food. The recommendation
for storage, as stated on the food
packaging, should be observed at
all times.
Defrosting of the appliance
Excessive build-up of ice will affect
the freezing performance of your
device.
It is therefore recommended that
you defrost your appliance at least
twice a year, or whenever the ice
build-up exceeds 7 mm.
Defrost your device when there is
only little or no food in it.
Take out the deep-frozen food.
Wrap the deep-frozen food in
several layers of paper, or a
blanket, and keep it in a cold place.
Unplug the appliance or switch
off the circuit breaker to start the
defrosting process.
Take out the accessories (like
shelf, drawer etc.) from the
appliance and use a suitable
container to collect the thawing
water.
